Nawazuddin Siddiqui has signed on for the upcoming dark comedy thriller Blind Babu, directed by Ravi Varma. The film is now in production and shooting has already started.
Ravi Varma shared the news on Insta, posting photos of Siddiqui with the crew. One picture shows them holding the clapboard titled Blind Babu, marking the start of filming, while another features the full team.
Varma captioned it “Get ready for chaos, edge-of-the-seat suspense, and dark comic moments… The journey of #BlindBabu begins now!”
Veteran actors Zakir Hussain, Pavan Malhotra and Mukesh Tiwari are also part of the cast though many details about the crew and storyline are still under wraps.
Meanwhile Siddiqui’s film I’m Not An Actor premiered at the 14th DC South Asian Film Festival in Washington, D.C. He is also set to appear in Raat Akeli Hai 2 and the horror-comedy Thama with Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna.
